Safety information

Side effects

Dry skin was the most frequently reported side effect in BenzaClin clinical trials, affecting 12% of patients. Other reported effects included reactions where the gel was applied, itching, peeling, redness and sunburn. Moisturizer use during the trials may have reduced the reported rate of dry skin. Serious allergic reactions, including anaphylaxis and reactions requiring hospitalization, have been reported with clindamycin/benzoyl peroxide products. Seek urgent medical attention for a serious allergic reaction. The frequency of these reactions and whether the products caused them cannot be reliably established from these reports.

When to call your doctor

- Seek medical attention immediately if you have a severe allergic reaction (anaphylaxis).

If symptoms are severe or getting worse quickly, seek emergency care rather than waiting.

Before taking this medicine

Do not use BenzaClin if you are allergic to any of its ingredients or to lincomycin, or if you have a history of regional enteritis, ulcerative colitis or antibiotic-associated colitis.
